Got it new. Currently its bone stock minus the RAM phone mount. However, I have the necessities coming in the mail: fender eliminator, smoked LED turn signals, flasher relay, motodynamic smoked tail light, and some CRG arrow bar ends. Just your usual phase 1 of nip and tucking...
And oh! I can drink mate hahah

Just last weekend for some, and this coming weekend in Milwaukee for mamatried show. I currently live in downtown Chicago. I've recently moved here from San Diego, CA (I know crazy right), and I dont know too many people over here so far so it would be gret to get together with some other 8's. I've taken some rides up near Madison, WI, and I've gotta say, I was impressed. I didnt think the midwest had any hills/decent roads but it was amazing over there. I think I'll be waiting until it reaches 50 degrees F before my bike sees the sunshine. Props to those who went out last weekend! That I just could not do... |

Welcome brother I live in the city also so if you need riding company . Where did you get your bike from if I may ask? Thanks davor, I'd definitely be down to go for a cruise whenever it hits 50 degrees or so around these parts. Where in the city do you live? Im over in the Lakeshore East neighborhood. I actually got my bike from a dealer in Port Clinton, Ohio by the name of Powersports 360. I bought it back in April of 2014 for $5900 out the door. I rented a truck and drove out there to capitalize on a great deal. I'm used to Southern California prices, so I was astonished to see one listed so low. I got a little excited you could say, but these bikes tend to do that I guess |

mamatriedshow.com/Myself, Trixter, Mansack, Doom, Ashpalt847 and Lucky will be here on Saturday if you want to meet us for beer n food. That looks like a great event! This looks like a pretty awesome show. I really appreciate the invite, but this weekend I'll be pretty busy. Grad school and a full time job will be holding me back this time around. If you happen to see the ice racing I'd be interested to hear that was though! |

We also go to K1 Speed in Addison for kart fun a fair bit too if you want to tag along. Seriously mate, we do hang out and have fun a lot. More than welcome to join. |
